O-Mok-See summer series starts Sunday

It’s once again the time of the year for the Whitehall Saddle Club’s O-Mok-See Summer Series.

The first O-Mok-See is scheduled to take place this Sunday, May 14 with signups starting at 10 a.m., and action slated for 11 a.m. The May O-Mok-See events include pole bending, key race, top-n-turn, candy bar/flag and lazy egg race.

The May 14 O-Mok-See will also include a special Tack and Trunk Day Sale starting at 10 a.m. Saddle Club member Bridget Morse said residents will be able to use their trunk, pickup bed, or small table to sell used horse tack, riding clothing, boots and helmets. Morse added they did a similar sale in May last year and would like to make it an official event with the first O-Mok-See of the year. She said the sale is not limited to those who will be competing, but wanted residents to make sure not to bring household items, just horse related stuff to sale. The 2017 O-Mok-See dates are June 4, June 25 (District 2), July 23 and August 20. August 27 has been set aside as a rain date.
